That was my second question on that - where to put it, and how to find it.

Actually, I think readline handles that and we can't turn it off. Though I
think I need to set INPUTRC=<something> to make it work on win32, it doesn't
know abuot the All Users profile for example.
I was thinking of a completement to the inputrc. Which would be somethign like:
if exists $SYSTEMCONFIG/psql.inputrc
load $SYSTEMCONFIG/psql.inputrc
endif
if exists $HOME/inputrc <-- this part handled by readline, not us
laod $HOME/inputrc <-- this part handled by readline, not us
endif
